1497 [Future Direction]
Seeing that the company's performance is booming, I am quite satisfied with the summer.
"In the new year, I hope everyone will continue to work hard." He told everyone, "Real estate companies should acquire more land and start more projects; hotel groups should look far and wide and lay out the mainland; garment companies should consolidate their brands and seize the market; banks should vigorously absorb deposits and reserve enough ammunition for the development of the group; investment companies should develop boldly and operate with caution."
The Hong Kong real estate industry could not collapse before 1997, and it would rise very outrageously. Now, if you buy more land and build more buildings, you can make a fortune by taking advantage of the general trend.
It is not practical for Hong Kong real estate companies to build buildings in the mainland, because the mainland has not yet opened its real estate market and is still monopolized by state-owned construction companies. However, although real estate cannot be involved, it can get involved in the hotel industry.
For example, Huo Yingdong built Zhongshan Hot Spring Hotel in the mainland in 1979, and in 1983, it built Guangzhou White Swan Hotel. These two hotels were still prosperous until the New Century, and customers were like clouds.
Think about it, if you build a five-star hotel on the Bund, on the Second Ring Road, on the Third Ring Road, on Futian, or on Xiguan... just by the geographical conditions, there will never be a shortage of customers.
Nowadays, not only are the land prices cheaper in the mainland, but there are also good plots. There are also farmland outside the Third Ring Road of Shendu. Pudong, the Magic City, is also desolate, and Shenzhen is also a construction site now... It is the time to make money in advance.
What Tianfu Garment now needs to do is to consolidate its brand and seize the market. The competition in the clothing industry is actually very fierce. Even luxury brands like Chanel and Louis Vuitton have to face tremendous pressure. If they don’t advance, they will retreat.
Therefore, although Tianfu Garment bought Du Peng, swallowed Li Xin Garment, and won the crocodile shirt, it did not mean the final victory. On the contrary, its journey had just begun.
Xia Tian doesn't know much about the clothing industry, but he has also seen with his own eyes that many once-prominent brands gradually decline.
For example, when he was in middle school and college, Benny Road was a serious brand and was quite popular among young people. But a few years later, Benny Road became an outdated brand and no one cared about it. Although he didn't know the specific reason for Benny Road's decline, he expected that there was a problem with his development strategy.
A brand as famous as Bennylu will decline in just three or four years as long as there is a problem in development. Tianfu garment is not as famous as Bennylu, so it will decline very quickly.
Bill Gates once said that Microsoft is only eighteen months away from bankruptcy. In fact, this sentence applies to the clothing industry.
In terms of banking, in summer, we now have to develop real estate, film and television industry, garment industry, and also to speculate in real estate in Fusang and carry out large-scale acquisitions in Taiwan... All of this requires a lot of financial support.
These funds are difficult to raise from the stock market. Because the total market value of the Hong Kong stock market is only 400 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the daily trading volume is only 400 billion Hong Kong dollars. If this series of plans in the summer is to be completed, it will cost at least 100 billion Hong Kong dollars, so we must find another way. The most convenient, most effective and lowest cost method is to use the funds of the Bank of East Asia.
Now the East Asian Bank has only more than 40 billion deposits, which is far from enough for summer. It must work hard to absorb public deposits and accumulate funds for the summer's great cause.
In terms of investment banking, Xia Tian didn't know much as Liang Botao, but he knew the general trend of the world economy. He knew that there would be drastic changes in Eastern Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s. For speculators, this is a great opportunity to make money.
When the Soviet Union collapsed, it created a large number of economic oligarchs. The oil fields, mines, factories, and supplies... became as cheap as cabbage.
The exchange ratio between the rupee and the US dollar has dropped from nearly one to one, and within three years, it has dropped to 3,235 to one, depreciating more than three thousand times. This is much worse than the depreciation of the US dollar against the Japanese yen in the Plaza Agreement. If it were to speculate in foreign exchange at that time, it would be really crazy.
...
After listening to Xia Tian’s lecture, everyone here nodded vigorously.
"Well, okay, the people from listed companies will withdraw first." Xia Tian waved his hand again.
When Liang Botao and others heard that, they all stood up and walked out one after another, leaving behind people from Tianxia Film, Asian TV, Tianxia Comics and other companies.
"How is it, how is the company's recent performance?" he asked Tan Guolun.
During his absence in Hong Kong, he was responsible for the World Pictures.
"The company has achieved very good recent performance. The box office of "Hong Xiguan" launched during the Christmas season was sold, and it won 31 million Hong Kong dollars in box office, and the box office of "Curry Chili" that was the winner also won 26 million yuan. During the Spring Festival, we are preparing to release "My Savage Girlfriend"." Tan Guolunhui reported.
"I already know all of these on the phone." Xia Tian nodded, "What I want to ask is whether the company has invested in new films recently?"
When Tan Guolun heard him say this, he was speechless.
Now Tianxia Pictures has not filmed a new film for nearly two months. It’s not that there is no script or director who wants to make a movie, but mainly because Tan Guolun is not sure about his idea and does not know if he will sell the top spot, so he tried all kinds of reasons to delay.
Seeing this, Xia Tian frowned immediately.
If the company is left, it will not be able to change. This situation is not very good. You should know that his future work focus is the United States, and Hong Kong can only glance at it from time to time, and not have any major trouble.
If there is no one in Hong Kong who is willing to take charge, and who is talented in the steward, and who is still pointing to him as before, it would be wrong. As the saying goes, a person is covered in iron and can no longer be nailed to death. He is not a Thousand-Handed Thousand-Eyed Tathagata, and he cannot take care of so many things.
"Boss, it's mainly because the project is not easy to determine, and I'm worried that I will lose money, so there is no new project to be launched." Tan Guolun frowned when he saw Xia Tian and quickly explained.
"I know you are cautious in character." Xia Tian nodded. He chose Tan Guolun to steer for him because he was cautious in character and serious in doing things.
But now thinking about it, if you want to make a name for yourself in the film and television industry, it is useless to be cautious and cautious. On the contrary, being flexible and actively explore can make a fortune.
Just like in Hollywood, the six major film companies are cautious and cautious, afraid of losing money when filming, so they dare not invest, and they dare not invest. As a result, most of the film market is occupied by production companies. However, those production companies dare to take risks and make progress, and eventually achieved very good results.
"Forget it, Tan Guolun is not from the film and television industry, so it would be embarrassing him to take charge of the film company." Xia Tian thought immediately, "It should be better to change a suitable person.
Chapter completed!
